Heās already back in his residence. Spent a week in recovery and the doctors made their decisions. He has multiple problems which will undoubtedly rear their ugly head from time to time. Heās pretty weak and Iām making an effort as I couldnāt make it when my Mum was degrading quickly as I couldnāt travel due to a compression fracture in my lower back.
Thanks, I donāt like travelling and this one has been a real effort to organise. Everything seems to be falling into place helping to alleviate my anxiety.

What any teen with sense would do at that point, is to beg his parents for a loan so he can pay them back instead of escalating, which is a risk when it comes to life and limb depending on the guys he owes money to.
I hope he manages to pay them back. I would rather do that than trust police to make all of it go away etc.

Itās unlikely that this lad fits that category.

Precisely so.
Turns out this ākidā is actually 22 , but heās clearly not so street smart , to the point of being dangerously naive. Itās possible from what I saw of him that he might have some kind of retardation , but he was in a state of abject fear at the time and barely making sense.
Yeah , the sensible thing to do would be to get these guys paid off and not press charges.

I left the house at 6:55 am. I am having a bad morning. Piccadilly line down. A tresspasser on the tracks at Hammersmith. Then i go to South Ealing station. Stuck there for 15 minutes. Train now suspended. Then, i get off to go to the bus stop and wait for 65 bus to Ealing Broadway. Wait 25 minutes. Then, bus driver on the other side of the road says, 65 bus is not going ahead, it is on diversion. Then, I walk another 20 minutes to Ealing Broadway station to get district line to Hammersmith.
On the way, i get splashed with a puddle when the car zooms passed me. Now, I am sitting on the train, they have to wait 10 minutes until the driver is given the green light to move. What a crappy start on my birthday!

Thatās not a bad morning Maria itās a nightmare.
Itās one of my biggest fears and why I hate travelling. It goes to show how little you control.
All my best wishes for the rest of the day.
Btw Iām setting off for England today and your story has exploded my anxiety to new unknown levels after having calmed my self down (phoned to confirm everything due to difficult arrival times).
Wish I hadnāt read your post

Happy birthday, looks like you had a full day, detour to the pub would have been the best idea and far merrier.
BTW Is you middle name lucky?

I made my self a drink last night - a gin and ginger ale. I then walked into the spare room where Mrs Limie was reading to see what she was up to and quickly realized the drink needed more ginger. I went back to the kitchen and could not find the can anywhere. We still have no idea where the little bastard went to.
I think Mrs Limie is fucking with me to make me think Iām losing it. A new form of gaslighting - ginger aleing
